INSTITUTE OF INSTRUCTION.
Large Attendance at the Annual Meeting
Abstract Of President Halls Address.

BURLINGTON, VT, July 6.-This mornings
session of the American Institute of Instruction
opened with large attendance. After the usual
preliminary business, President j. NJ. Hall de-
livered the annual presidential address. He
said that better times in the educational world
have come, thanks to the American Institute of
Instruction A still better time will come if

use of our light as they who preceded us did

ago. The speaker advocated compulsory educa-
ton. not a cure-all, but thing which
tends toward the permanency of republican in
situations. The teaching of morals in the schools
seems more necessary than ever before, and
more is done than before. There
is on the whole, more need that the homo sup

the homes in America lack to-day more than all
else ia wise parental counsel and guidance. with

ton. the president took the ground that the most
practical was the training which gives the pupil
keenness of thought, power to study a subject
and arrive at a sensible conclusion, the ability
detect sham and recognize merit to appreciate
goodness and to enjoy noble thought. The
president had no doubt that the day would sure

Prof. T. 3. Balliett, superintendent of the
schools of Reading, Pa, delivered an interesting
and instructive address upon the feelings and
their culture. The emotional element in
science develops gradually, and it is great mis-
take to assume that an appeal merely to the
sense of right in case Of child is sufficient to
secure right conduct A chlds conscience will
more keep it out of moral harm when ex-
posed to temptation than its judgment will pro-
tect it against physical injury when exposed to
danger. We should not expose a child to
temptations which its undeveloped moral nature
is not sufficiently strong TO resist. 1t is some
such training this that educates our defaulting
